The grant will enable Curator of Archaeology Andy Maxted
and UCL Osteoarchaeologist Paola Ponce to analyse approximately 90 skeletons of all
ages and sexes, to gather biographical information, including any signs of
disease or disability.

"This
is a fantastic opportunity to try and find out more about these early
Anglo-Saxon immigrants. The project will give us much more of a 'human' insight
into this part of Brighton & Hove's history, and greatly add to our
appreciation and knowledge of local life in the early post Romano-British
period."
